Friend, 

Vladimir Putin’s Russia first invaded Ukraine two years ago today. Remember when Russia was projected to take Ukraine with relative ease?

Enter Joe Biden, holding the Western world together and rallying the pro-democracy coalition against Putin.

And when he and President Zelenskyy stood in downtown Kyiv, in the same spot Putin expected to hold a victory parade… that was a clear signal to the rest of the world that America was standing firm with Ukraine and democracy.

It’s no wonder the MAGA GOP wants to hand Ukraine over to Putin. Trump swears he’ll end the war in 24 hours. You know how that will end. The GOP is fully aligned with autocracy, whether it’s Putin or Orban or any strongman. It’s no wonder that one of the craziest MAGAs out there started his CPAC speech with “Welcome to the end of democracy!” – and the attendees cheered!

MAGA wants to weaken America on the world stage. They are working to cripple America from within – killing a bipartisan border deal – and from without – stalling aid to our allies in their fight against a murderous dictator.

With Joe Biden, Ukraine and democracy will always have a firm defender. And it is working, despite MAGA’s best efforts.

It has never been more clear. If Trump takes the White House, Putin takes Ukraine. In November, a vote for Trump is a vote for two dictators. Let’s deny them both. We can’t hand Putin and his orange understudy what they want on a silver platter. We have to fight. Somebody has to tell them no. Luckily, the American people have that very chance in about 8 months.

Two years into an authoritarian invasion, we stand firmly with the people of Ukraine. It’s up to all of us to make sure America does, too.
